This is the sort of stuff I was excited about AI for in the 2010s when development started showing results. Before tech(bro) companies ruined the term.

Yeah, I just hate it when I go to a concert and it's all fireworks covering up the music I went to see. Would suck if the opposite happened...

What could be causing this on my new Elegoo CC2?
By no means an expert or super experienced with 3d Printing, but with the few taller prints I have done myself I've noticed print speed plays a big factor. At the higher speeds, the whole structure jiggles a bit, especially with limited supports.
Maybe someone with more experience will confirm or correct me, but slowing the print down would be my first instinct to prevent it.

Anyone coding with no backups or version control in place doesn't have anyone to blame but themself for sabotaging their code. A sudden power outage would be their undoing.

EU age verification app announced to protect children online
Reply in thread
You don't need to show ID to enter the store just because they sell cigarettes at the front counter. The staff person checking the OD at the front counter isn't memorizing the information on the ID and using it to track every other purchase you make in the store, or to piece together what you're doing once you leave the store.
Locking individual content behind age verification (and it entirely depends on how they are handling the age verification), is different than a blanket identification check to use the platform at all. Age verification is used to prevent children from buying cigarettes from a store while under aged, but it's up to parents to prevent them from getting cigarettes other ways.

Please help me under stand my spouse's gift and their hurt
We literally established a rule early in our marriage. I'm not allowed to gift nerdy t shirts. They don't like them. I love them. I thought they would like them but they do not. So they asked me to stop. This feels the same.
This point stood out to me. I'm assuming that you verbally established a "no nerdy t-shirts" rule, but did not verbally establish the "no new items" rule. If it was only implied, or you felt it was obvious to not buy you new gifts, but did not explicitly establish that rule like you did for the t-shirts, then it is not the same. Neither of you are bad or wrong for the moscommunication, but this is a great opportunity to have an open and frank discussion about gift expectations for each other.

Sure, but sometimes (a lot of the time, from the experiences of multiple women in my life) doctors use "you're overweight" as a thought terminating phrase and won't even begin to look at other possible illnesses or treatments other than "you're overweight, you need diet and exercise".
By all means, if obesity is impacting their health it is something that needs to be addressed as well. That doesn't negate other health issues that happen to be comorbid with obesity, though.
